My Proud Canuck | Manitoba Children’s Photographer
My 5 yo has been begging for Canadian Olympic gear! I should have been on top of my game and stocked up BEFORE the Olympics! Now basically everything is sold out :(. He really wanted a pair of those red mittens. I did find this Canuck shirt at the Bay. He loves it! And o my goodness, he really stretched this winter… gone is any hint of toddler chub. We’ve all been missing the excitement of the Olympics. But are very proud of our country!

Rachelle
She loves horses! It was really cold and I love how the camera captured their breathe in the crispy air :)~ Just a fun get together with my sister that I wanted to share. We don’t see each other very often but both share a passion for photography! So of course when we do see each other, we usually end up dragging someone outdoors to model for us!
Jewel - part 2 | Manitoba High school Senior Photographer
As promised, here is part 2 of my session with Jewel! At this point we were racing back from the city, trying to get to her home in the country before the sun set on us. I loved her idea of setting up a vintage mirror in the trees and some of you have seen these cars before, located in the woods close to their house!
Jewel - part 1 | Manitoba High School Senior Photographer
Meet my very lovely niece Jewel!
Jewel is my spokesmodel for her class of 2010! Back in November we headed out for an afternoon of shooting. Needless to say, we had loads of fun and I walked away with way too many pictures :). For the first part of our shoot we headed into downtown Winnipeg and found a few neat locations. Jewel, it’s always a pleasure when you grace my camera with your presence ;). Looking forward to our spring session! Here is part 1.
Happy Valentine’s Day
I like to bake… sometimes ;). Actually what I really like is to make pretty things and take pictures of them.
My 2 yo really likes it when I bake pretty things!
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

Kenny & Kat (e-session) | Manitoba Engagement Photographer
Let me introduce to you Kenny & Kat in winter wonderland!! Back in December after lots of emailing back and forth, Kat and I finally met at Starbucks to plan for their engagement session! Her fiance, Kenny is from Texas (go Longhorns!). Just thought I’d throw that in there since you informed me many times about your commitment to the team ;). So Kenny was going to fly in to Winnipeg for about 5 days in January. My initial reaction was brrrr and I told her of the very likely possibility of it being too cold, January being the coldest month in Manitoba. But they were determined and we were blessed with one of the mildest Januarys I can ever remember having!! The Monday of our scheduled session I woke up and literally started giggling when I looked outside! It was a winter wonderland, a setting I had dreamed of shooting in for a long time. Everything was covered with a thick layer of hoar frost AND it was mild! I was so excited and so were Kenny & Kat. Just imagine coming from Texas and never really having seen snow before, he was like a little boy ;). Needless to say our session was filled with lots of laughter and fun! Plus aren’t they just a stunning couple? It was so lovely to meet you both and thanks for making the trek out into the boonies to find the best locations! Looking forward to your wedding day in June!!
Meet Kenny and Kat:
And just for fun thought I’d show you the reason behind them being graced with fluffy flakes. Every once in a while a slight breeze would send all the frost from the trees drifting into the air and surrounding us as if we were in a snow globe!
Rans & Felicity (e-session) | Manitoba Engagement Photographer
Welcome to my first photo session of 2010!! I am very excited to post this session! Mark & I met up with Rans and his fiance Felicity during our vacation in Seattle. Rans’ family have been very close friends with my family since like the late 80’s ;). So I’ve known Rans since he was 5ish?! Correct me if I’m wrong. While I was in highschool, their family moved away from Winnipeg and settled in Toronto. We have always kept in touch over the years. Rans pursued his passion of playing basketball which landed him a scholarship at Western Carolina University! This is where he met Felicity, who was/is a fellow Canadian playing volleyball for the same college! I believe this is when they started dating. Rans went on to play pro basketball in Europe! I kept up to date with him through facebook and read about him getting down on bended knee in Rome last December :). Anyway, to make a long story short, I was beyond thrilled when Rans sent me an email asking if I’d photograph their wedding in Vancouver this coming July! Luck would have it, he was visiting Felicity in Vancouver the same time we were on vacation in Seattle so we decided to meet up, have coffee, catch up on the latest news 
and do a quick engagement session! Of course, it was a torrential downpour the day we met up. Really dark and miserable. Totally different environment for me to shoot in coming from sunny, bright Manitoba! But challenges are good.. and here is the result! It was so awesome to meet you Felicity and to catch up with you again Rans! We are really excited about your coming wedding day!
Ok, here is the 2nd part of our session. We found a parking spot close to the Pike Place Market downtown and started trudging up the stairs, only to find it was closed! New Year’s Day :). Oops, so we walked in the rain and found a few sort of covered alley ways. By this point we were all cold and wet so we got a few more shots then ducked into a furniture store and pretend shopped while Mark was a sweetheart and got the van :). But I must say I almost shrieked when Rans showed me his classic Winnipeg Jets sweater jersey! Go Jets Go! Yes, I know they have not existed for a long time but he still lived in Winnipeg during the Teemu Selanne glory years. (NHL hockey team; for those of you who don’t know). So of course I was all giddy and had to do some pictures with them sporting their Winnipeg Jets and Vancouver Canucks jerseys!
We were losing light fast but here is one from the bubblegum wall!
Mark & I are super excited about your wedding in July!!
And just for fun, a picture Mark took of me in action
The Beauty of Winter
Something totally different from me but I wanted to share with you all the breathtaking beauty of hoar frost. Some of you may not be familiar with what that is, hoar frost happens when a heavy fog sets in during freezing temperatures and it coats everything with a layer of fluffy frost! The result: a frosty winter wonderland under a crazy blue sky!
And a few from yesterday, under an overcast sky. Shot on location during an engagement session
